We did the magnetic cartridge conversion on both a Wurlitzer 1900 and 2300. As the 1900 used the Cobra tonearm we had to get an arm salvaged from a Wurlitzer 3100 for it. The 2300 allowed a magnetic to bolt on in place of the Sonotone ceramic. On both of them we used a solid-state preamp and a Pickering cartridge. The difference in the sound is incredible. It will go from sounding like an old portable phonograph to almost like a modern stereo component system with a huge increase in sound quality and bass and especially converting from the Cobra will be a lot more gentle on records.
